    The best way is not trying to get into files other people have protected with passwords ^.^

    some lame ass brute force programs can do it. I suggest for your own sake that you use your email password or something dumb for your rar passwords. :D

    Not really, torrent files usually use the website URL the torrent originally came from as the password, to try to prevent/discourage direct remote linking. Although I've only ever come across one such torrent before and I download a few dozen torrents a week

    No, demon for me More expensive than the average UK ADSL company, but for the unrestricted usage and doing virtually what you like (running servers etc.), it's worth it

    I'd estimate 80-100 GB down and 40-50 GB uploaded per month on this connection

    If I ever get a consistent job I'm so getting one of those...UK demons.

    Actually I wonder if Canada has anything like that for less than 50$ a month *shrug*

    One of my roomates does as much as 9 simultaneous torrents a night...it absolutely kills upstream bandwidth. :rolleyes2

    Our ISP has yet to complain.

    ...

    How the heck did this topic get hijacked from passworded RARs to bittorrent?

    Because BT is a likely source of passworded rar files

    Tell your roommate to use a decent BT client that can handle multiple torrents simultaneously, like Azureus (my favourite - needs Java 5 or later installed to run correctly) or ABC, so he can throttle the up/down speeds to a reasonable rate (upload not higher than 80% of your max upload) so the rest of you guys can still use the internet comfortably

    Thanks for the good advice. I'll pass it along to him.

    Yeah, one of my other friends recommended the same thing (specifically bitcomet) and throttling the upstream speeds of torrents.
